New Bookblog entry

When I came back to Blogger, it was to find that I already had a couple of blogs here, which hadn't seen the light of day since 2009 (told you I was good at deserting them!).  One of those is a book blog, which, I was mildly surprised to discover, is actually quite well-ordered.

I got out of the habit of tracking what I actually thought about books when I realised I could track them over at GoodReads in a much more lazy efficient fashion, but since joining a couple of online book clubs, and finding the perfect template for a booklog in my filofax (more details to come), I've been trying to keep better track of the words my brain has been absorbing.

Alas, because the filofax pages are for my own records, I've been making them as spoilery as possible, so I can actually remember in a few years exactly why I felt the need to scrawl swearwords all over the back of the review page.  I'm definitely out of the habit of producing nice, even, vague sentences about what I've been reading, so it might take me a few goes to get it readable.

That said, I'm proud to announce that I've decided to revive my online booklog!  There's a bit of a gap, but yesterday I finished a book club read, Something Wicked This Way Comes, by Ray Bradbury.  If you've read it, feel free to leave a comment and tell me what you thought of it (or what you thought of what I thought of it!).
